MEATLESS MEATBALL SLIDERS

I'm not typically a 'meatless meat' person, but this blend sold me on the concept. It uses simple ingredients I always have on hand. It also has a good dose of protein, just like meat!

Categories     appetizer

Time 30m

Yield 6 meatless meatball sliders

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup almonds or walnuts, toasted
2 cloves garlic
1 cup panko or matzo meal
1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese, plus more for topping
2 tablespoons dried parsley
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 large eggs
3 1/2 cups (28 ounces) tomato sauce
Canola or vegetable oil, for frying
12 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced 1/4 inch thick
Fresh basil leaves, for topping
6 slider rolls, toasted
Chopped fresh parsley or basil, for topping

Steps:

  • Combine the nuts and garlic in a food processor and pulse to a coarse crumb. Add the panko, Parmesan, parsley, a big pinch of salt and a few turns of pepper and pulse to combine. Add the eggs and process until the mixture holds together in a ball. Roll the mixture into 1 1/2 tablespoon-size balls, packing just firmly enough so they hold together but not so much that they toughen. Put the balls on a plate or sheet of parchment paper.
  • Warm the tomato sauce in a large pot over medium heat.
  • Heat 1/4 inch of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the balls in batches, turning, until they're golden brown on all sides, 7 to 10 minutes. (Alternatively, you can deep-fry the suckers if that's what you're into.) Add to the tomato sauce.
  • Put 1 slice of mozzarella, 2 balls and 1 or 2 basil leaves on each roll. Serve with additional sauce and chopped parsley or basil on the side.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of ingredients: Don't be afraid to mix and match different ingredients to create unique and flavorful sliders. Some popular options include black beans, lentils, quinoa, mushrooms, sweet potatoes, and zucchini.
  • Season your ingredients well: Don't forget to season your ingredients with a variety of spices and herbs. This will help to bring out their flavor and make your sliders more delicious.
  • Use a good bun: The bun is an important part of any slider. Make sure to use a bun that is soft and fluffy, and that can hold up to the fillings.
  • Don't overcrowd your sliders: When assembling your sliders, don't overcrowd them. This will make them difficult to eat and will prevent the fillings from cooking evenly.
